Celery salt is a seasoned salt used as a food seasoning, made from ground seeds, which may come from celery[1] or its relative lovage.[2] It may also be produced using dried celery or seed oleoresin.[3][4]
Celery salt normally contains an anticaking agent such as silicon dioxide[1]orcalcium silicate.[2]
Some brands of celery salt are very high in the preservative sodium nitrate.[citation needed] When added to foods, sodium nitrate forms small amounts of nitrosamines, a family of possible human carcinogens.[5] As a vegetable, celery seeds have potassium as the dominant ion over sodium (9 fold more).
